So, I started this blog today...

For anyone who doesn't know my sister Heather over at Life of a Pesseri, she's pretty much awesome. Well, all of my sisters are awesome, but currently I have reason to focus on Heather specifically. This is because she has a blog. Not just any blog, but an awesome blog. In fact, she has nearly 200 followers already. Well, Heather writes about anything and everything that is important to her. It is an excellent way to relieve stress that she uses from time to time. Mainly she writes about fashion and bargains and stuff, but she often just tells random, fun stories of her life. It got me to thinking: I too have stress to be rid of. I too have stories to share. I too have a life from which I may draw stories. I may not have desires to post about fashion finds (I am a man, after all), but other than that, I could totally start a blog!
Thus "I am man" was born. I'm not entirely sure where I want to go with this blog just yet, but I'm pretty sure that wherever I go with it, it will be awesome. Right now, I'm planning on writing life stories. I love telling stories, and if it's a story about me, it makes it that much better. Until further notice, all stories are from my life and are real real life stories. Most will likely be humorous, but I'll occasionally throw in a serious one or two here and there. I will include pictures wherever possible. I'll try to stick with current stories, but in the event that I have nothing exciting to tell, I'll be like to tell stories from my past. I'll keep them clean, but I can't promise that some of the stories won't include crude humor or content.
I want to take a moment to point out that one of the things I love the most ever is finding humor and joy in everyday situations. I hope that my stories and my blog as a whole will reflect this generally optimistic view about life that I have. I have done very little in my life that is super-amazing or grandiose, but for the most part have lived a relatively normal life. Well, normal for a Texan Mormon boy who has 5 a-frikin-mazing sisters. But I believe that even day to day living can be celebrated, and all human existence deserves documentation. That is my goal with this blog: to show the beauty of life through the simple recitation of my own experiences.
Well, that's about all that I have for today. I'm excited to start this process of documenting myself for the whole world to see!
